Verse 1: 

Amaj7          Dmaj7   
 When I walk in your shoes, 
  C#m7         E9 
I understand a man confused. 
      Amaj7   
There must have been, 
    Dmaj7   
But I don't care, 
  C#m7 
I feel the way, 
     E9 
Your soul does there. 

Amaj7            Dmaj7   
 Darling, they empathise, 
C#m7 
 Looking through, 
     E9 
Your bloodshot eyes. 
Amaj7   
 And I know you; 
       Dmaj7   
You're so frustrated, 
C#m7 
 Above we all become, 
     F#7/b9 
What we once hated. 

Bridge 1: 

   Bm7    E7  
Be-sides, nobody, 
    Bm7           E7 
Can be that wise. 


Amaj7           F#m7 
 I can't help you, 
Bm9 
 If you won't, 
E9         Amaj7    F#m7  Bm9  E9 
 Help your-self. 

Amaj7           F#m7 
 I can't help you, 
Bm9 
 If you won't, 
E9         Amaj7    F#m7  Bm9  E9 
 Help your-self. 

Amaj7           F#m7 
 You can only get, 
Bm9      E9 
 So much from, 
        Amaj7    F#m7  Bm9  E9 
Someone else. 

Amaj7           F#m7 
 I can't help you,

 Help your-self. 

Verse 2: 

Amaj7   
 You've got a degree, 
  Dmaj7   
A-in philosophy, 
C#m7 
 So you think, 
              E9 
You're clever-er than me. 
    Amaj7   
But I'm not just, 
     Dmaj7   
Some drama queen, 
          C#m7 
'Cos it's where you're at, 
    E9 
Not where you've been. 

   Amaj7   
So what do you, 
   Dmaj7   
Ex-pect from me, 
   C#m7 
To hold your head, 
  E9 
A-bove the sea? 
    Amaj7   
And carry you, 
     Dmaj7   
Even though you're bigger, 
     C#m7 
'Cos don't you know, 
             F#7/b9 
You crush my tiny figure? 

Bridge 2: 

    Bm7 
And anyway, 
      E7 
We're still so young, 
    Bm7        E7 
And this isn't yesterday. 


Amaj7           F#m7 
 I can't help you,

 Help your-self. 

Amaj7           F#m7 
 I can't help you,

 Help your-self. 

Amaj7           F#m7 
 You can only get, 
Bm9      E9 
 So much from, 
        Amaj7    F#m7  Bm9  E9 
Someone else. 

Amaj7           F#m7 
 I can't help you,

 Help your-self. 

Break: 

Dmaj7   
 You might be twenty five, 
    C°   
But in my mind, 
Amaj7           E/G# 
 I see you as sixteen years old, 
F#7 
 Most of the time. 

Dmaj7   
 And I'm just a child, 
C°   
 And you're full grown, 
    Bm7 
And you are like nothing, 
     E9 
I've ever known.
